HO HO HO Back to work I go.

Well, today is my last day of Winter Break and with the surgery I have been off for 3 weeks. Dave has been off the entire month of December and will be going back to work tomorrow too. We have had the best time together, well at least I have. He might not be saying that since he is the one that did the entire honey do list over the break. We got so much done though. Notice I said "we". I tried to help a lot but probably was not worth a darn.

I have never been so ready to get back to working out in all my life. I feel like such a blob. I have one more week to go so I am really getting anxious. I know I will not be able to go in there and start back where I left off, no way. I still have some pain just vacuuming . We spent the evening with friends, there were 14 of us and they are all teacher friends. My friend Janet who had her gallbladder out last year says it was a piece of cake and she was back to work in a day or two. I was out 5 days with it and she has 15 yrs on me and a little over weight and out of shape so WTH? This has been harder for me than I ever thought it would be. I thought I would be back in the gym in a week or two, HA, no way!I feel like such a wuss.

I will let you know how the workouts turn out. I am suppose to be getting new workouts and diet from Mike this week. I go back to the doc this week and I have to get my tooth drilled on tomorrow and HO,HO,HO back to reality I go.

GOOD LUCK. If anyone can get over this and go on to do the things you want to do this year, you can.

This is just a small inconvenience in an otherwise potentially emotionally lucrative year, so kepe your chin up, best wishes and good luck.

As always, I am very proud to be seeing the things, you are capable of doing.

You're an outstanding rolemodel to others.

I don't think there's a rhyme or reason why someone recovers a certain way. Your body just did it in the way it needed to.

Brian had the month off from school, which mean I did too (no homework). He goes back tomorrow as well. Spent yesterday getting the house back in order. But I think we're ready for it now.
